Abstract
The present invention provides foods containing sterol fatty acid esters composition and having pleasant texture, taste and flavor, wherein free sterols are hardly crystallized during storage, and a lot of the sterol fatty acid esters composition may be incorporated in foods having a low oil and fat content. The foods contain 1% by weight or more of the sterol fatty acid esters composition with a degree of esterification of more than 90%, thereby enabling foods containing oils and fats having a good emulsifying effect to be obtained.
Claims14
Foods containing a sterol fatty acid ester composition with the degree of esterification of sterols of more than 90%.
Foods containing a sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, wherein the degree of esterification of sterols is more than 90%.
Foods containing a sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, wherein the degree of esterification of the sterol fatty acid ester composition accounts for 93% or more, the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in the total fatty acids constituting the sterol fatty acid esters accounts for 88% by weight or more, and the unsaturated fatty acids have at least one or plural double bonds.
Foods containing a sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, wherein the degree of esterification of the sterol fatty acid ester composition accounts for 93% or more, the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in the total fatty acids constituting the sterol fatty acid esters accounts for 88% to 94% by weight, and the unsaturated fatty acids have at least one or plural double bonds.
A sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, wherein the degree of esterification of sterols is more than 90%.
A sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, wherein the degree of esterification of the sterol fatty acid ester composition accounts for 93% or more, the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in the total fatty acids constituting the sterol fatty acid esters accounts for 88% by weight or more, and the unsaturated fatty acids have at least one or plural double bonds.
A sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, wherein the degree of esterification of the sterol fatty acid ester composition accounts for 93% or more, the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in the total fatty acids constituting the sterol fatty acid esters accounts for 88% to 94% by weight, and the unsaturated fatty acids have at least one or plural double bonds.
A process for producing a sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, the process comprising the step of increasing the degree of esterification of sterols to be more than 90%.
A process for producing a sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, the process comprising the steps of:
- regulating the degree of esterification of the sterol fatty acid ester composition to become 93% or more,
- regulating the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in the total fatty acids constituting the sterol fatty acid esters to become 88% by weight or more, and
- regulating the unsaturated fatty acids to have at least one or plural double bonds.
A process for producing a sterol fatty acid ester composition obtained by utilizing an enzyme in an esterification step between sterols and fatty acids, the process of the steps of:
- adjusting the degree of esterification of the sterol fatty acid ester composition to become 93% or more,
- adjusting the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in the total fatty acids constituting the sterol fatty acid esters to become 88% to 94% by weight, and
- adjusting the unsaturated fatty acids to have at least one or plural double bonds.
